"ECOBEST Challenge is the first European independent test on the most popular EV’s on sale in Europe. The testing methodology is consistent and unbiased, pioneering the `human random factor`, the closest concept to the ideal `average customer`! AUTOBEST introduced a number of proprietary indexes, easy to be understood by all the consumers around the world. It is about real range, real charging process both AC and DC , about energy efficiency spent on board and `life after death` of the battery indicating ZERO on the cluster. All the results are introduced without any ranking or comments. Our mission is to serve the millions of motorists looking to see facts and figures, real measurements coming from real driving habits, real traffic testing. ”

With ECOBEST Challenge, our organization is making one bolder step to serve the European motorists, delivering key information about the real range, energy efficiency and more about the most popular EV’s on the market. Our aim is to offer an independent test, where all the cars are driven in the same time, on the same route by different drivers, coming this year from 13 countries.
In 2009 AUTOBEST launched ECOBEST Challenge project, as a world’s first project for measurements of consumption, CO2 emissions, pollutants and micro particles. ECOBEST Challenge was launched years before Diesel gate scandal, with the aim to give consumer real data in real life traffic.
